Jade visits town

The afternoon sun hangs high in the sky, partially hidden behind clouds. The air is damp from last night's rain and puddles fill the streets. From the Seshtau embassy, the baroness can be seen exiting. She is wearing her normal black dress and is being followed by her flesh golem protector. She isn't carrying herself with purpose as she normally does. Her shoulders seem to slump and her stride slacks in pace. Jade makes her way to the artisan's guild.

As Jade makes her way through town, Storm catches the sight of her big flesh golem walking with Jade. She turns to the winged person at her own side and jerks her chin towards Jade.

"That's the Baroness. Come on. Maybe she needs to see Zuiigri too."

Storm and her friend head for the Artisan's Guild as well.

Inside the Artisan's Guild there are shoppers meandering about and checking out wares, though there do seem to be fewer people than there used to be. A tall woman with long blonde hair and a sour face stands behind the counter, idly sharpening a sword.

Storm follows Jade inside the guild and tries to catch up with her. "Baroness!"
